What the Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median says in Idaho
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median in Idaho at $46,720 per year. Median means the middle of the published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. It is not a job offer. The row is tied to SOC 51-9111 and BLS area 16.
BLS lists 3,950 wage and salary jobs for this exact role-place row. That is a survey estimate. It is not a count of open posts. The local mean is $46,630 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Idaho's Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median is 8.1% above the U.S. Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median of $43,220 on the same published median. The comparison uses the same SOC code and source period. It does not add price levels, taxes, benefits, hours, or a person's work history.
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 51-9111 and area 16. SOC 51-9111 names Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. Area 16 names Idaho. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 51-9111/16 row reports 3,950 wage and salary jobs, 4.61 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.89 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 51-9111/16, the annual median is $46,720 per year, while the matching mean is $46,630 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 16 facts behind this Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders page
Area 16 reports 857,440 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $61,170. Its annual median is $47,970. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.4%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 51-9111 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Idaho runs from $29,300 at the 10th percentile to $103,240 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,660. The median is $47,970. The 75th percentile is $72,320. This is a place check, not a pay range for Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders.
The source rows below are the six largest detailed roles in the bounded area file. Each keeps its own SOC code. They help a reader spot-check area 16. They do not show related skills or a path into Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders.
1. Area 16, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 25,810 jobs, $28,940 annual median, 30.1 jobs per 1,000, and 1.21 location quotient.
2. Area 16, SOC 11-1021, General and Operations Managers: 24,880 jobs, $80,390 annual median, 29.01 jobs per 1,000, and 1.29 location quotient.
3. Area 16, SOC 43-9061, Office Clerks, General: 20,790 jobs, $44,830 annual median, 24.24 jobs per 1,000, and 1.53 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Idaho wage ladder for Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders
The 10th percentile is $35,250 per year. The 25th percentile is $37,240 per year. The median is $46,720 per year. The 75th percentile is $52,260 per year. The 90th percentile is $60,330 per year.
A percentile is a rank point, not a career stage. The 10th percentile does not mean new-worker pay. The 90th percentile does not mean a wage that comes after a set number of years. The points show how the wage values spread in the source. They do not say why one job sits at one point.
The middle half runs from $37,240 per year to $52,260 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $25,080. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Idaho has a annual median of $46,720 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $43,220 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Idaho. Idaho is 8.1% above the United States on the same published median. A gap can reflect many things that are not in this row. WageScope reports the gap but does not name a cause.
The state and U.S. rows are bench marks, not replacements. They do not fill missing local facts. A state can hold many local labor markets. A national row can hold many states. Read the local row first, then use the broader rows to see scale.
Where Idaho sits for Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders
Idaho ranks 6 of 51 among states and territories with a published annual median for Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 6 of 51 is not a place score. A small wage gap can move a row several spots. The rank does not add local prices, job count, concentration, commute, taxes, or work rules. Use it only to find where the published median falls inside this like-for-like set.
The nearby rows below are the closest ranks, not chosen cities. Their pay, job counts, and local shares can differ. Open a peer page before making a deeper comparison. A title and one number are not enough for a move or pay choice.
3. Missouri has a Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median of $48,070 per year, 12,620 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.76.
4. Maine has a Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median of $47,970 per year, 1,490 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.95.
5. North Dakota has a Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median of $47,390 per year, 760 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.73.
Pay leaders
Where Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 51-9111, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. New Hampshire has the highest published median in this set, at $49,450 per year. Idaho sits at $46,720 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders is in the local mix. It also does not add local prices. The bullets keep the median, job count, and location quotient together so a high wage is not read as a full market score.
Use this list to choose a deeper pair, not to choose a place. Open the two local pages. Check the full wage ladder, the job scale, the survey care marks, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. New Hampshire has a Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median of $49,450 per year, or $2,730 above Idaho. BLS lists 620 jobs there, compared with 3,950 in Idaho. The location quotient is 0.37.
2. Wyoming has a Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median of $48,890 per year, or $2,170 above Idaho. BLS lists 360 jobs there, compared with 3,950 in Idaho. The location quotient is 0.53.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders jobs
California has the largest published state job estimate for Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders in this same-source set, at 43,430 jobs. Idaho has 3,950. The count shows covered job scale, not open posts.
A large job base can have a lower median than a smaller one. It can also have a location quotient near or below 1. That is why WageScope does not blend job count, pay, and local share. Each field keeps its name and unit. The rows below let you compare all three without making one score.
Current MeritLog listings can add a dated view of employer-title matches. They do not change this May 2025 order. A place with few current cards can still have a large BLS job estimate. A place with several cards can still have a smaller estimate. The sources use different clocks and scopes.
1. California has 43,430 estimated Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders jobs, a gap of 39,480 jobs from Idaho. Its median is $44,020 per year, or $2,700 below Idaho. Its location quotient is 0.98.
2. Illinois has 29,400 estimated Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders jobs, a gap of 25,450 jobs from Idaho. Its median is $43,150 per year, or $3,570 below Idaho. Its location quotient is 1.98.
Local-share leaders
Where Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders takes the largest share of local jobs
Kansas has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 2.26. Idaho has 1.89. A value above 1 means the role's local job share is larger than its national share.
A high quotient can come from a small local job base. It does not prove more jobs, more posts, faster growth, or higher pay. The bullets keep each quotient beside its BLS job count and median. This lets a reader see when the three measures point in different ways.
Use this list to ask where Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders is a large part of the local mix. Use the employment list to ask where BLS counts the most jobs. Use the pay list to ask where the median is highest. None of those lists decides where a person should work.
1. Kansas has a location quotient of 2.26, a gap of 0.37 from Idaho. BLS lists 7,920 Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders jobs and a median of $44,890 per year, or $1,830 below Idaho.
2. Wisconsin has a location quotient of 2.25, a gap of 0.36 from Idaho. BLS lists 16,150 Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders jobs and a median of $46,220 per year, or $500 below Idaho.
3. Illinois has a location quotient of 1.98, a gap of 0.09 from Idaho. BLS lists 29,400 Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders jobs and a median of $43,150 per year, or $3,570 below Idaho.
Job scale and share
How common Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders is in Idaho
BLS lists 3,950 Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders jobs in Idaho. It also lists 4.61 jobs per 1,000 local jobs. Jobs per 1,000 turns the count into a rate. It helps compare places of different size. It does not show open posts or hiring speed.
The location quotient is 1.89. A value of 1 means Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is higher than 1. The quotient is a share check, not a wage or a growth measure.
Read the three values as separate facts. Employment asks how many covered jobs BLS estimated. Jobs per 1,000 asks how much of the local job base the role takes. Location quotient asks how that share compares with the national share. None of them tells you how many posts are open today.
Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders beside other roles in Idaho
The all-occupations median in Idaho is $47,970 per year. The Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median is $46,720 per year. Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders is 2.6% below the local all-occupations median on the same published median. This compares one role with the full covered job mix.
The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Idaho. They are close by wage, not by task. A small wage gap does not mean two jobs need the same skill or lead to the same career. Official titles keep their own SOC codes and source rows.
Use the list to spot the local wage mix around Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. Then open the role page you mean. A role can have a similar median and a very different job count or local share. The pay number alone cannot show fit, demand, or a path between jobs.
1. Construction Laborers, SOC 47-2061, has a Idaho median of $46,940 per year. BLS lists 10,850 jobs and a location quotient of 1.79.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Retail Sales Workers, SOC 41-1011, has a Idaho median of $46,140 per year. BLS lists 7,330 jobs and a location quotient of 1.19.
3. Maintenance and Repair Workers, General, SOC 49-9071, has a Idaho median of $48,190 per year. BLS lists 8,200 jobs and a location quotient of 0.97.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Idaho
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Idaho table, at 25,810 jobs. Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders has 3,950 jobs in its exact role-place row. The two counts show where this role sits beside other large parts of the local job base.
The all-occupations job count is 857,440. The detailed list below is only a bounded view of that larger mix. It does not sum to every local job. It does not include a blank role as zero. It helps explain why one role's wage and job count should not stand in for the whole area.
A large role can have a lower median. A smaller role can have a higher one. Job count does not show current posts, job quality, or growth. Use the list to see local scale. Then keep Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 25,810 jobs in Idaho, a gap of 21,860 from Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. Its median is $28,940 per year, or $17,780 below Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. Its location quotient is 1.21.
2. General and Operations Managers has 24,880 jobs in Idaho, a gap of 20,930 from Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. Its median is $80,390 per year, or $33,670 above Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. Its location quotient is 1.29.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Idaho
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Idaho role table, at $92,460 per year. Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders has $46,720 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,970 per year. A role above that mark is not better. A role below it is not worse. The mark only shows where the role's published median sits against the full covered job mix. Job tasks, level, hours, and work setting are separate facts.
The bullets keep each SOC title, job count, median, and local share together. Use them to find a role page worth opening. Do not use a close median as proof that two roles share skills or that one is a path to the other.
1. Registered Nurses has a median of $92,460 per year in Idaho, or $45,740 above Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. BLS lists 16,880 jobs, compared with 3,950 for Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. Its location quotient is 0.91.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $80,390 per year in Idaho, or $33,670 above Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. BLS lists 24,880 jobs, compared with 3,950 for Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. Its location quotient is 1.29.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Idaho
Carpenters has the highest location quotient in the bounded Idaho role table, at 2.27. Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders has 1.89. Both values compare a local job share with the matching national share.
A quotient above 1 means the role takes a larger share of local jobs than it does across the nation. It does not mean more jobs than every other role. It does not mean open posts, growth, or high pay. The job count and median beside each row answer those other narrow questions.
The local role-share mix can differ a lot from the pay mix. Read both lists. Then compare Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Carpenters has a location quotient of 2.27 in Idaho, a gap of 0.38 from Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. BLS lists 8,380 jobs and a median of $52,000 per year, or $5,280 above Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders.
2. Construction Laborers has a location quotient of 1.79 in Idaho, a gap of 0.10 from Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. BLS lists 10,850 jobs and a median of $46,940 per year, or $220 above Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders.
Price-level view
What $46,720 may mean after the Idaho price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Idaho is 95.5. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 4.5% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $46,720 Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders median by 95.5 divided by 100. The result is $48,925 in national-price dollars per year. This proxy keeps the math clear. It is not take-home pay and does not set a move target.
Housing is 90.0. Goods are 96.3. Utilities are 70.4. Other services are 99.0. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders row is 6.1%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.3%. RSE means relative standard error. It is a survey precision flag. A smaller value often means less sampling uncertainty. It is not the chance that one person's pay is right or wrong.
The employment RSE belongs to the 3,950 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $46,630 mean. BLS does not give the same RSE field for the median or every percentile. WageScope does not move an RSE from one field to another.
A local row can change in a new release. A small role-place sample can also have more survey uncertainty than a broad national row. Keep the May 2025 date next to the value. Do not mix a newer job post with the BLS date as if both facts came from one clock.
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders. It uses a Idaho place filter only when the public place list has an exact approved match. If that match is not safe, the page says the jobs are not narrowed to this place. A false negative is safer than showing a different role.
Each card keeps its employer, place, source, and seen date. Listings can change between visits while the survey figures stay tied to their release date. A listing range does not replace the $46,720 BLS median. The listing and survey answer different questions.
Open one listing. Check its level, work place, pay range, and needs. Then tailor with work facts you can support. Do not turn a wage, job count, rank, or price proxy into a résumé claim. The public page is read only. It does not save a job or start a draft on load.
What the Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders row for Idaho does not claim
The row does not say what one person earns. It does not promise a job, offer, raise, or move result. It does not say why the local median differs from the U.S. row. It does not add tips, bonus pay, stock, benefits, taxes, or work hours unless those items are in the BLS wage measure.
The 3,950 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.89 is not a growth score. Rank 6 of 51 is not a place score. The 95.5 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 51-9111 in BLS area 16. Compare the same metric with the state and U.S. rows. Add the separate 2024 price level when present. Inspect a dated job match. Then use confirmed work facts for a résumé.
BLS published an employment estimate of 3,950 wage and salary jobs for this exact row. It is a survey estimate, not a current opening count or forecast.
Are the current job listings included in the BLS wage calculation?
No. MeritLog shows eligible live public-catalog listings separately, with their own source and observation date. Posted pay never changes the official BLS distribution.
